Distribution. Europe except its north.

Distribution in Serbia. Serbia, without precise locality (3; 4).

Remarks. Althoff & Danilevsky (1997) reported the species from Serbia, but without any additional data on the precise finding.

This finding is suspicious, although the taxon is recorded in some other Balkan countries ( Mikšić 1963; Ilić 2005).
